What is it about black singers that compels them to insert all sorts of random notes that were never in the song to begin with? And why do they have to take a single syllable and stretch it out and chew on it for like 10 seconds?

Das SOUL, doan chew know!
Funny, Brook Benton seemed to be able to do Soul without being "cutsey".
In allowing them to "go on", I believe that person took some small comfort that a large portion of the audience would see the "performance" for what it was, a non-harmonious, disrespectful, self-aggrandizing display of lack of talent against our great nation's anthem and symbol of greatness.
